That looks real sweet, can I check though - and sorry if this sounds daft, but did you put the springs on the right way round? (cant remember if they all look the same on all 4 shocks) usually the back sits a little higher than the front? Liking the morettes too!!

cheers bud, yes thyre on the right way round, the reason the rear is a little lower is that i cut the rears slightly as they were the same as standards, im going to do the fronts when the weather picks up, i left  them at 40mm lower as i have to drive over horrendously high speed bumps 4 times daily and its a nightmare  :huh: but im thinking maybe another 20mm will be ok.  :wink:
